The incredibly talented folk musician, Heather Ferrier, will be performing at Ludlow Distillery as part of the Shire Folk Music tour on Thursday 14 March.
Doors (and very importantly, the bar) open at 7pm with live music starting at 8pm. We hope to see you there! Tickets priced £10 can be purchased from: www.shirefolk.co.uk
With captivating musicianship and a sound that is unapologetically her own, Heather Ferrier is a force to be reckoned with. An “engaging talker and magnetic performer” (NARC magazine), the Stockport born accordionist, clog dancer and composer is changing the perceptions of alt-folk on her own terms.
Her latest EP Engine for the Sound creates music that sets the accordion free from its stereotypes, and with an extended line-up of musicians, expresses everything Heather stands for using powerful melodies and jazz-influenced harmony. Bold, passionate and enthralling; the EP has been played on BBC Radio 6 music, and well as being favourably reviewed in local and national publications.
